[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1314893, member: 14668"] Something to remember about the ORION The Two Step Guide to UPS Corporate Advancement is as follows; Step One--pull a random number out of your ass Step Two--force everybody below you to chase it None of the numbers matter. Chasing them is simply an exercise in generating reports for the sake of generating reports. As an upper-level UPS management person, the sheer volume of reports you generate matters far more than whatever might be printed on them. If you pull, say, an 85% compliance metric out of your ass, you can write a report explaining why that number should be the goal. A week or two later you can pull a 90% compliance metric out of your ass and spew out a whole [I]new [/I]pile of reports explaining why [I]that[/I] number should be the new[I] [/I]goal. Its a tough job, but that's why those guys are getting paid the big bucks. [/QUOTE]
